Sommario/riassunto

This special issue presents a series of papers written of a group of leading scientists working in the field of the mechanics of plastic deformation. The collection covers a broad spectrum of topics including: pressure-dependent plasticity, elastic-plastic deformation of thin plates, metal-forming analysis and design, constitutive behavior near to frictional interfaces and new developments in the upper-bound method. No reader working in this general field can fail to find something of interest within.

Sommario/riassunto

Ever since the Middle Ages the Otherworld of Faerie has been the object of serious intellectual scrutiny. What science in the end dismissed as



airy nothings was given a local habitation and a name by art. This book presents some of the main chapters from the history and tradition of otherworldly spirits and fairies in the folklore and literature of the British Isles and Northern Europe. In eleven contributions different experts deal with some of the main problems posed by the scholarly and artistic confrontation with the Otherworld, which not only fuelled the imagination, but also led to the ultimate redundancy of learned perceptions of that Otherworld as it was finally obfuscated by the clarity of an enlightened age. Contributors include: Henk Dragstra, John Flood, Julian Goodare, Tette Hofstra, Robert Maslen, Richard North, Karin E. Olsen, David J. Parkinson, Rudolf Suntrup, Jan R. Veenstra, and Helen Wilcox.
